Here's a vid from yesterday's down-winder from St Kilda to Sandy.. I was using my head cam.. It was classic DW conditions being about 20-30 knots true north wind.. Rather than just pick out the good moments/highlights and join them together (and having a 2-3 minute long vid) I decided to show one solid chunk about 5-6 minutes long so you can see what it's really like surching for the bumps joining them up.. So.. it's a bit long (about 7 1/2 minutes long) .. Those not into DW'ers might find it a bit boring.. I might do a shorter vid later just showing some highlights from along the whole one hour long run.. Anyway.. Hope you enjoy it..

Was around 25knots lacey with gusts up to 35 during our run,
the wind swells in the bay are much cleaner and easier to paddle onto than open ocean swells,sometimes just one stroke and your away, plenty of boards here for u to use if ever your down this way
